Using energy more efficiently is a key strategy for reducing global carbon dioxide emissions. Due to limitations on time and resources, actions must be focused on the efficiency measures which will deliver the largest gains. Current surveys of energy efficiency measures assess only known...

Coal–water slurry (CWS) preheating vaporization technology is an important new technology for the future development of Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) systems, providing an opportunity to improve the energy efficiency of wet feed gasification processes. This manuscript...

The interconnection between a renewable power generation facility and a power grid poses challenges because of volatility and intermittent characteristics. Energy storage is one of the best solutions for this problem. This paper presents an integrated energy storage system (ESS) based on...
